offshore wind farm<\/a> Hollandse Kust (noord), which is already partially owned by Shell.<\/p>\nThe renewable hydrogen generated will deliver energy to the Shell Energy and Chemicals Park Rotterdam via the HyTransPort pipeline1, where it is intended as a substitute for some of the grey hydrogen usage in the refinery. This will play a role in helping to decarbonise the facility\u2019s manufacture of energy products such as petrol and diesel and jet fuel. As heavy-duty trucks are coming to market and refuelling networks are expanding, renewable hydrogen supply can be turned toward these areas to assist in decarbonising commercial road transport.<\/p>\n
Meeting the word\u2019s demand for clean energy<\/h3>\n \u201cHolland Hydrogen I demonstrates how new energy solutions can work together to meet society\u2019s need for cleaner energy. It is also another example of Shell\u2019s own efforts and commitment to become a net-zero emissions business by 2050,\u201d explained Anna Mascolo, Executive Vice President, Emerging Energy Solutions at Shell. \u201cRenewable hydrogen will play a pivotal role in the energy system of the future and this project is an important step in helping hydrogen fulfil that potential.\u201d<\/p>\n
Shell\u2019s objective is to contribute to the development of a global hydrogen economy by creating opportunities in the production, storage, transport, and delivery of hydrogen to end customers. Holland Hydrogen I\u2019s approval indicates a significant landmark towards attaining this goal, not only for the Netherlands, as a leader in the hydrogen economy, but also for Shell globally.<\/p>\n
Shell: developing a global hydrogen economy<\/h3>\n Shell currently owns and manages approximately 10% of the global capacity of installed hydrogen electrolysers, including a 20 MW electrolyser in China and a 10 MW proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolyser in Germany. They can generate, respectively, 3,000 tonnes and 1,300 tonnes of hydrogen a year.<\/p>\n
Shell is operating a number of low-carbon hydrogen production projects with potential capacity of over 950 ktpa (Shell share).<\/p>\n
With Holland Hydrogen I, Shell intends to generate hydrogen using electricity that has been produced by the offshore wind park Hollandse Kust Noord.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
